| Reservoir loop, afternoon, solo. Saw 5 cyclists, but not a single runner. Bizarre. I know it is the weekend of the Boston Marathon, and the day of the Women's Marathon Trials, but not even the casual 5-10 mile runner was out at the same time as I was. I guess that's what I get for running late in the day. |

| Up and around the Salisbury Hill development about which an article appeared in the alternative weekly paper on water quality and erosion. I observed a truly odd natural phenomenon. An older, taller tree had died, cracked near the base, and fallen partway over. It had struck a shorter, smaller tree squarely. The smaller tree was bent, but not broken, with the weight of the dead tree on it.
AOWN: saw one wild turkey up on the hill. Where were the rest of the pack? |

| Assabet River Rail Trail loop, 5.5M, easy pace.
The fair weather cyclists/walkers/skaters are starting to come out. I encountered a group larger than any other I'd seen before, but, thankfully, they were not as obnoxious as they were large: 4 adults, a kid, 3 dogs, and a stroller, taking up both sides of the trail. Fortunately, at least some noticed me before I overtook them and moved aside to make room. Thanks for sharing. |
